SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 334,684, dated January 19, 1886.

Application filed November 12, 1885. Serial No. 182,619, (No model.)

To aZZ whom it nwty concern:

Be it known that LGEORGE H. A YLwoRTH, a citizen of the United States, residing at Jacksonville, in the county of Duvall and State of Florida, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Summer Fans; and I do do;

clare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in. the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanyingdrawingfand to letters or figures of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.

The figure of the drawing is a representa tion of this invention.

My invention relates to fans; and it consists in the construction and novel arrangement of parts,as will be hereinafter fully described,and particularly pointed out in the claim.

Referring by letter to the accompanying drawing, A designates the base of the fanframe, upon which rests the box or incasement D for the spring-actuated clock-geariug D.

B designates the hollow' upright or stand, which is open at the top,and E designates the vertical shaft, which passes up through the hollow upright or stand B. I

' F designates a pulley 011 the upper end of the vertical shaft E.

O designates a horizontal arm connected to the upper end of the hollow stand B, and this arm 0 is provided at its outer end with a bearing, M, for the vertical fanshaft N. This fan-shaft N is provided at or near its upper end with a pulley, H, and this pulley H is connected by a belt,G,with the pulley F. The fans II are secured to the lower end of the vertical fan-shaft N by a hub, N, so that the fans will revolve with the fanshaft.

J is an open'bottom and open-top drum or cylinder, which is suspended from the outer end of the arm 0 by a bail, C. To the bottom or lower edge of the open drum or cylinder J V is attached a wide band of cloth, K, and to the bottom of this band K of cloth is attached a mosquito-bar, L, the metal drum and cloth bottom forming an inverted funnel. The fans are twisted or set so as to draw or exhaust the air from under the cloth cover and force it out at the top, the tendency being to form a vacuum, thereby removing the foul air occa- I sioued by the breath, which partial vacuum is filled with fresh air from below through the I mosquito-bar part L of the covering.
